T 0 all whom itmay cancer r1,

Belt known that I, HOW RD A. R GERS,

a citizen of the United States, residing ,at-

Atlanta, in the county of Fulton and State of Georg1a, haveinventedcertain new and useful Improvements in v Oven Attachlnents,

of which the following is a specification, I

This invention has relation to heatingappliances, and the nature andobjects thereof willbe readily apparent tothose skilled in the art. towhich it appertains, in thelight of the following explanation of theaccom panying drawings, illustrating what I now believe to be thepreferred embodiment, or mechanical expression, of my invention fromamong other forms within the spirit of the invention and the scope ofthe appended claims.

However, an object of the invention is to provide a portable oven whichis attachable to heating stoves, wherein an oven does form a portion ofthe permanent structure of the stove.

Another object of the invention is to provide in an oven of thecharacter described, means whereby the gases issuing from the stove maybe directed around the oven to heat the same or if desired may beprovided with a direct passage for the gases to the smoke pipe.

In addition to the foregoing my invention comprehends improvements inthe details of construction and arrangement of parts to be hereinafterdescribed, and particularly pointed out in the appended claims.

In the accompanying drawings in which similar and corresponding partsare de signated by the same reference characters throughout the severalviews in which they appear,

Figure 1, is a view in side elevation of' a conventional'type of heatingstove showing the application thereto of my improved oven,

Fig. 2, is a plan view of the oven partly broken away, and the stove,

gig. 8, is a central vertical detail section an Fig. 4, is a verticaldetail section through the damper.

With reference to the drawings 1 indi cates a conventional heating stove.having a boss 2 at its upper portion to which the smoke pipe is usuallyconnected. My invention comprises a substantially rectangular outercasing 3 provided with an inlet 4. at its not lower portion which issurrounded with a depending flange 5 for engagement within the boss 2 ofthe stove. An outlet opening is provided at the upper'portion of thecasing, and preferably in vertical alinement with the opening forconnection with a smoke pipe 6.

An inner casing 7 is provided within the casing ,3, and is spaced fromthe top, bottom, andlongitudinal sides, of the outer casing, butisconnected thereto at either end. The top of the inner casing is formedwith a flange 8 which is secured to the front wall of the outer casingand is provided with andisposed directly beneath the smoke pipe 6. Adamper 10 is disposed above the opening 9 for normally closing the same,and is actuated by a rod 11 which extends through the casing and isprovided at its terminal outside the casing with a handle 12.

One end of the outer casing is apertured for registrationwith the openend of the inner casing so as to provide an entrance thereto; the innercasing therefor constitutes the oven. A closure 13 is hingedly mountedadjacent the aperture in the end of the easing for normally closing theoven. A door 14 is provided for closing an opening 15 in the front wallof the outer casing, and a securing element 16 is mounted upon theinterior of the outer casin and is provided with a hook portion 1? forextending through the inlet opening 4, to engage the under surface ofthe roof of the stove, for securing the oven thereto. As an additionalmeans of fastening the oven to the -stove rods 18 are provided forengagement with eyes 19 upon the oven, and within apertures at the baseportion of the stove. The lower terminals 20 are threaded, and providedwith nuts 21.

When the oven is to be heated, the damper 10 is in position so as tocover the opening 9, and the heated gases from the stove are forced totravel horizontally toward the rear of the casing then vertically to theupper portion of the casing, and then horizontally again toward the exitopening. In this manner the sides of the oven are heated, and articlesof food placed within the inner casin are cooked, or their temperaturemain-- tamed according to the extent to which the opening 10 is closedIf the temperature of the oven is to be aperture 9 lege of changing theform of the details and otherwise altering the arrangement of parts,

I without departing from the spirit of the invention or the scope of theappended claims. Having now described my invention, What I claim as newanddesire to secure by Letters Patent is 1. An oven attachment forstoves, including an outer rectangular casing having vertically alinedoutlet and inlet openings formed in the top and bottom sides respectively thereof and adjacent the front Wall, an inner casing forming anoven secured to the end Walls of the outer casing and spaced from theremaining Walls, a flange formed by a horizontal extension of the topside of the inner casing, said flange having an opening in alinementWith the first mentioned opening, and a damper for varying the apertureof said opening.

2. An oven attachment for stoves including an outer casing having inletand outlet openings formed in its bottom and top sides respectively, anoven casing Within the outer casing spaced therefrom to provide a channel for the passage of heated air, a flange formed around the inletopening for insertion in the smoke outlet of a stove, one vertical Wallof the outer casing having an opening formed therein adjacent the inletopening, a door forming a closure for said vertical Wall opening, and ahook member pivoted to said vertical Wall and depending behind theopening formed therein and into the inlet opening of the outer casingfor insertion into the smoke 'outlet of the stove, and for engagementunder the top side of the stove, to hold the attachment in place, saidhook member being adjusted through the opening in thevertical Wall.

In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of tWo Witnesses.
